IDLE HANDS THEATRE COLLECTIVE
Up Next
Idle Fest
Our Third Idle Fest is August 29th
2pm and 7pm
ONE WEEK OF DEVISING. 12 ARTISTS. ONE NIGHT ONLY.
What happens when performing artists from completely different worlds meet, collaborate, and have less than one week to create something together?
That’s Idle Fest.
We bring together performers of all kinds- actors, dancers, musicians, comedians, drag artists, puppeteers, and more to form unexpected creative teams. Most artists meet for the first time through this process, then have just one week to dream up, rehearse, and create an original performance.
The result? A night of brand-new, one-of-a-kind performances that push artists outside their comfort zones.
You won’t know exactly what you’re going to see. Neither will we.
